There are a couple of newer, large hotels near to the Prairie Capitol

Their restaurants and saloons are as changeable (and interchangeable) as socks.
And often as attractive and tasty. As an example - the longest surviving venue
in either location is a chain-bar/bistro called "Bennigan's".

... To barbeque is a way of life rather than a desirable method of cookery.
